Core-js is a modular standard library for JavaScript that polyfills ECMAScript features and standard APIs. It aims to provide compatibility with older browsers and environments by filling the gaps in language features and ensuring consistent behavior across different platforms. Core-js includes polyfills for features like Promises, Symbols, Iterators, and more, allowing developers to write modern JavaScript code without worrying about compatibility issues.

Compared to other polyfill libraries, Core-js offers a comprehensive set of polyfills and allows for selective inclusion of features to optimize bundle size. It is actively maintained and regularly updated to support the latest ECMAScript standards, making it a reliable choice for ensuring cross-browser compatibility in web applications.
